My widest point is a few inches below my hip bones, and I wasn't sure if that would affect the drape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-measure-hips#post-1429129 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 02:24:53 +0000 Anonymous 1429129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At your widest point </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-measure-hips#post-1429114 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 01:44:55 +0000 retailgirl 1429114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They ( whoever "they" are) say it should be seven inches below your natural waistline, but I think at your widest point is best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-measure-hips#post-1429056 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 00:12:03 +0000 Aziraphale 1429056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Around the widest part of your hips, which is usually right smack across your butt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-measure-hips#post-1429054 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 00:09:44 +0000 gradfashionista 1429054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Quick question about measurements.
